The next day, Zhang Qianxiu had to find a way to find a second-hand bicycle. The places where he went to the market were basically the "business gathering area" of shiliba village. Even if he didn't go to the market at ordinary times, there would be several shops open, such as repairing bicycles, tailoring shops, home appliance maintenance, etc.
Zhang Qianxiu went to the market and immediately went to the place where he repaired the bicycle: "boss, do you have a second-hand bicycle?"
"Bicycle?" The boss, who was mending the tire, looked up at Zhang Qianxiu and shook his head: "no, you go to the town and ask. It seems there are some."
The market places are far away from the town, at least more than ten miles. Otherwise, the government will not advocate the market. The market is prepared to solve the inconvenience of purchasing daily necessities in the remote area of H county town.
"Excuse me, boss!" Zhang Qianxiu turned and left.
The boss couldn't help looking at Zhang Qianxiu again, because few people in the countryside are as polite as Zhang Qianxiu. If you say no, they turn around and leave.
Zhang Qianxiu felt a little strange that he didn't prepare well in advance. But if he didn't accept rice today, he would have to earn less money for a day. After thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Qianxiu decided to take hundreds of pounds, carry it to the county, and then buy a second-hand bicycle in the county.
When collecting rice, I had a chat with Liu Zhijian.
Because we need less rice today, we bought 80 Jin at 10:30.
Zhang Qianxiu spent a few cents on a shoulder pole at the market nearby. Looking at Zhang Qianxiu picking up rice to go, Liu Zhijian called Zhang Qianxiu: "brother Zhang, where's your car?"
"That car belongs to my uncle. Today, I went to the county on my way to buy a second-hand one." After four or five days of "torture", Zhang Qianxiu's pain is not so obvious. It's only more than thirty miles from here to the county seat. He walked there, but it's not a big problem.
Looking at Zhang Qianxiu's back, Liu Zhijian couldn't help admiring him.
Liu Zhijian is also a person who has suffered a lot, but at the age of 16, like Zhang Qianxiu, he secretly admired him for carrying 80 Jin of rice and walking 30 miles to sell it.
In fact, many people in rural areas can do such things, but they don't do it every day, just occasionally.
Zhang Qianxiu has been walking and stopping all the way. These days, he has developed some strength in his feet, but when he carries the burden, he still torments his shoulders. His bones are aching.
Because the speed is not very fast, shoulder also can't stand, under the sun, has been walking from 10:30 to more than two in the afternoon to the county.
Eighty Jin of rice earned five yuan and sixty cents. Now he has 135 yuan and sixty cents in his hand.
Zhang Qianxiu saved all the money by a dime. He brought his own rice balls and asked the villagers to borrow some water when he was thirsty. He didn't spend a cent on his own except for buying steamed bread and soda for Hu Shanshan on the first day.
For 20 yuan, Zhang Qianxiu bought a very old bicycle. The shelf was probably picked up by the boss from the scrap shop. The boss rubbed it with sandpaper, painted a layer of black paint, changed a tire and chain, and sold it as a second-hand car.
Riding that bicycle, which is really not good at selling looks, I went to mail the manuscript I wrote last night.
I went to the library to get a library card and borrowed three books, capital, principles of economics and commercial law.
With the book, Zhang Qianxiu didn't stop much and rushed home.
When he got home, it was still early. Zhang Qianxiu continued to read the unfinished book capital. These things can't teach you how to make money, but they can teach you how to understand the market rules and see through the market rules in order to make a lot of money.
After these days of "polishing", Zhang Qianxiu has begun to plan his future. He wants to do business and do big business!
Science and technology, finance, the Internet, the future time, is full of infinite possibilities.
In such a good era, he has set himself a "small goal". He will not go back to the old way of working, being a car slave, a house slave and working nine to five every morning.
He wants to realize the freedom of wealth and spirit thoroughly.
All his relatives and friends are peasants who face the Loess and face the sky. They can't give him any advice. He has to arm himself with knowledge. With his own prophets, he has to cut through the thorns and break out of the encirclement in this big trend.
In the next few days, the atmosphere at home was the same. He came out early every day, took a book to read, took notes, wrote his experience, insisted on writing a manuscript every day, and stole it from the magazine the next day.
A few days later, Zhang Qianxiu's money exceeded 200.
When Zhang Qianxiu went to collect rice, he found Liu Zhijian and returned the ten yuan to him.
When Liu Zhijian took the money, he admired Zhang Qianxiu in his heart. He had never seen such a hard-working young man. He couldn't help sighing and saying, "brother Zhang, if you don't succeed, there will be no reason in the world."
Zhang Qianxiu gently smile: "in fact, everyone is tired, after the market people close up, they have to rush to the county to buy goods, and they have no time to rest."
When he said this, Zhang Qianxiu was suddenly stunned. He thought of a way to make money, that is, to buy goods for small vendors in the market.
Although the small vendors in the market do not have to replenish goods every day, replenishment is really troublesome.
Sometimes in the middle of the night, a few peddlers rent a pickup truck to buy goods; Sometimes it's to close the stall early and take the bus to the county to buy goods; Some people go to the county by bike to buy goods.
No matter how they purchase, it is extremely inconvenient.
Zhang Qianxiu thinks that when he comes back every day, he can help these peddlers bring back some goods. He can only charge one or two yuan for each person. When they go to purchase goods, the fare is more than one yuan. If they rent a car together, they may need more money and spend more time in it.
As long as we can talk about it well, we will certainly make money.
